Hi all,

I entered FREETEXT in the ese file as follows:

Quote

[FREETEXT]
N034.25.38.532:E135.14.17.536:RJBB:E9
N034.25.36.211:E135.14.19.921:RJBB:E9
N043.28.35.500:E141.48.02.000:MVA_RJCO_ACA:80
N043.27.20.200:E142.02.00.000:MVA_RJCO_ACA:70

The first two lines means the gate numbers of the airport and the last two lines describes the MVAs.  When I want to assign different color between these two groups, is there any good way to do this?  Any helps will be appreciated.

thanks a lot.

If you want to define different colours, you need to do it on the "labels" section of the .sct

For example:

"AIC" N040.30.00.000 W014.30.00.000 COLOR_RestrictedArea
"8NM" N039.15.17.000 W011.45.12.000 COLOR_RestrictedArea
"5NM" N039.15.17.000 W010.35.12.000 COLOR_RestrictedArea

Thank you very much, Bernardo!

I found this works, yet grouping function disabled when I do it in the sct file.  Is it true that grouping function only works if they display or not, and does not control the colors?

Yes, when you do it on the sector file all you can do is enable the SCT2 or not. 😞
